A FOrlunats Brakeman.

1t was reported last week that Mr..
Frank Corcoran, in the employ of the
III. Central Il. r. at the stone depot
in this city, had drawn a prize of
$40, 900 In The Louisiana State Lot
terry, aud many being incredulous
about it an Argus reporter inter
viewed him on the subject, with the
result of finding the report strictly
correct. He drew it on two-tenths OF
ticket No. 1896, which took the
second capital prize of $50, 900 in the
drawing of May 10th. Mr.. Coreoran
takes his good fortune as matter of
course, not being unduly elated there
by. Although man of modest pre-
tensions, he was well off financially
before getting the prize, and, as he
remarks, "a little money does not
bother him." He expects TO continue
right along in his present position as
long as the road wants him. He is,
and has been for many years, brake
man on the steam trucks at the stone
depot. He is quiet man and very
attentive to his duties, never being
absent except when i'll. He is bach
elor, about 48 years of age. Is of
Irish parentage and came to Cairo
from Pennsylvania in 1852. He has
no relatives living here, but has two
brothers and two sisters In Scranton,
Pa, all in easy circumstances. By
exercising prudence in expenditures
and investments he had accumulated
larger property than his prize in
the lottery amounts to before meet
ing with that piece of good luck. Such
a prize would completely turn the
head of many a man, but it does not
disturb Mr.. Corcoran's ordinary
course of life in the slightest Cairo

The Physiology Of Pleasure,

Pleasures may be summarily divided into
three groups-of the senses, of sentiment and
of intelligence-and it is easier to analyze
and classify than to discuss the functional,
that is, the physiological aspect. The ques-
ton has often been asked as to what consti-
tutes the greatest pleasure and who is the
happiest man, but it is obviously one that
does not admit Of solution. The intensity Of
the pleasurable sensation is matter of ten,-
permanent and surroundings, but, cseteris
pa,ibus, the happiest man is he who possesses
the greatest senSibility, the most powerful
imagination, the strongest will and the least
number of prejudices The men are rare
who can, by an effort of the VIII, arrest the
oscillations Of sorrow and allow only the
chords of pleasure to vibrate. Pleasure is the
mode Of sensation, never the sensation itself,
and it is not a paradox, but an incontestable
physiological truth, TO say that no pleasure
exists which is essentially or necessarily a
pleasure. The ideal Of perfection in human
ity would be to efface pain from the list of
sensations and TO give ell men the maximum
number of pleasures. All the rest, as the
philosopher said, is but dream and vapor.-

The Professional Horse Tra;per

and condition of horse He must be 4 frs

deal about his diseases so IS to doctor him
OF course he doesn't have to be a veterinary
surgeon, although the best trainers have a
practical knowledge about the troubles OF a

are Just as good As professional horse doc

There is one thing at the beginning that
should be stated TO correct general impress
sion. The trainer has nothing to do with
breaking horse. When q colt is brought
TO trainer it is understood that the horse is
ready for practical hard work, and 1t Is then
the trainers business to learn the peculisri-
ties OF the animal and develop aim for racing.
That should be borne in mind throughout;
the trainer trains Tor the race nothing else.
In general the work of different trainers is
the same Some trainers are better than
others, OF course, and occasionally some
pretty poor sticks get into the business. I

perfect example Of the most exquisite point

Empress Eugenie. 1t was unique on account
not only of the beauty of its floral design,

of the lace throughout was delicate creamy
white, while the slight difference in color
between the flowers and the foundation on
which they were worked could be appreciated
by the connolsseur In these matters 1t had
not been obtained by tinting, as in
